Unnecessary Hurt and embarassment


SO I went to a baby shower and there was a pool. Natuarally my bf made a beeline for the pool LOL. The shower was for his aunt so it was almost a given that everyone was going to take to the water...let me re-type that, the COLD water!!

After all the baby shower festivities, one of his sisters friends came and went in the pool. SHe cant swim well so my bf took her out to the deep end. Now this happened while my back was turned so I turn around in time to see my bf go under and her also then see her swim to the edge and try to climb over. He swims over and is talking to her then she turns around and slaps him in front of his family and friends.


Now.....


I have come to find out that he brought her closer to the deep end even though she didnt want to go and she got scared. Ok...I'm sorry (actually I'm not I'm pissed off at him and somewhat at her) but I didnt like her hitting him. He had no right to take her out there if she didnt want to go but she had no right to hit him afterwards. Straight goods and I dont care if anyone doesnt agree with that. Two wrongs dont make a right. If this same scenario played out somewhere else I know of family members who would have tried to drown her ass for doing that. Point blank truth. That type of reaction could get your slapped, hurt or worse.


Lesson learned here, if someone doesnt want to do something ( aka go to the the deep end of a pool bc they cant swim) dont force them to just because it seems fun. The feeling of drowning is real and very, VERY scary. I know because its happened to me.


Lesson 2: Even though your upset you have no right to get physical; walk away or tell the person to leave you alone till you cool off.
My bf acts like a big kid sometimes but sometimes even if you think you've got everything in control, there comes a time when you have to exercise maturity and think before acting. It may seem like fun and games but thats how people a) get hurt and b) get upset enough to turn it into a physical situation that didnt need to go there in the first place. I saw the look on his moms face and I could tell she didnt like the slap either but like me she couldnt say anything. It was embarassing and unneccesary.


I'm going to bed now. Talk to you all later
